Jackie Matubia’s Nanny Exposes Her With Fresh Claims She Mistreated Ex-Husband Blessing Lungaho
The domestic life of celebrated Kenyan actress and digital content creator Jackie Matubia has been thrown into the turbulent court of public opinion. This follows explosive, viral counter-allegations made by her long-serving nanny, Brigid Nanjala, who has fiercely accused the award-winning Zora actress of systemic workplace mistreatment, emotional manipulation, and toxic employer behavior.
The online storm erupted shortly after Matubia took to her popular lifestyle channels to announce that Nanjala had abruptly absconded her domestic duties, packing her bags and leaving the household without prior notice. The actress expressed disappointment over the exit, maintaining that she had already initiated internal family discussions to structure a comprehensive retirement and gratuity package for the nanny, who had served her household faithfully for five consecutive years.
However, Nanjala has broken her silence in a devastating rebuttal that directly contradicts the actress’s narrative. The domestic worker clarified that she did not run away, but was instead explicitly instructed to pack her belongings so Matubia could replace her with a new employee. In a deeply emotional exposé, Nanjala pulled back the curtain on the grueling realities behind the glamorous, heavily curated lifestyle videos Matubia regularly shares with her millions of online followers.
Nanjala recounted a particularly distressing incident that occurred during a highly publicized, all-expenses-paid family vacation to the luxury island nation of Mauritius. While fans on social media envied the seemingly perfect holiday, the nanny revealed she was experiencing intense emotional distress behind the scenes.
“You took me to Mauritius where I cried on an island. When shooting a video, you’d ask me to give you a smile for your fans,” Nanjala revealed in a heartbreaking statement. “I am tired, even though I know you are also tired of me. I have raised your kids with a clean heart.”
The fallout carries immense weight given the historical bond between the two women. In the past, Matubia had publicly showered Nanjala with praise, branding her an irreplaceable emotional pillar who anchored the household when the actress’s high-profile relationship with fellow actor Blessing Lung’aho spectacularly collapsed. Matubia had previously labeled Lung’aho a deadbeat dad—famously recalling how he allegedly called her while she was in the maternity ward to demand cooking gas money—and credited Nanjala with picking up the emotional pieces for her children during her darkest personal moments.
Now, that bond has completely disintegrated into acrimony. Nanjala further escalated the drama by making raw, unverified claims regarding the exact manner in which Matubia ended things with her former fiancé. The nanny alleged that during the final breakdown of the relationship, the actress unceremoniously chased Lung’aho away, stuffing his belongings into cheap plastic disposal bags.
“Now I’m nothing. You speak to me the way you want,” Nanjala fired back, explaining her decision to leave the actress’s employment. “I will not wait for you to place my clothes in a dustbin bag the way you did to Lung’aho. That’s where it was leading. I saw that happening.”
The shocking domestic feud has ignited a massive national conversation across East African digital spaces, dividing netizens down the middle. While a section of fans defended Matubia, arguing that domestic issues should remain strictly confidential, a massive wave of support has leaned toward the nanny. Labor rights advocates have used the viral scandal to highlight the lack of structural protections and psychological safety for domestic workers in celebrity households, where employees are often forced to perform corporate happiness for social media metrics while enduring toxic working environments in private. Matubia has yet to issue a formal legal or PR response to the heavy allegations.
